Heaven

"The Heaven, even the heavens are for Jehovah; but the earth hath he given to the children of men."
The offer of a few remarks, and those of a simple kind, is all that I can hope to attain to upon this topic, The subject is of interest to all those who are on their way to heaven; and it is of importance, too, to those whose faces are not yet turned thitherward. For darkness is everywhere else, and nowhere else is there to be found light, in which to see light; but in heaven, there is a light; and it is the true and abiding light; which, not only sheds its light over a world in darkness, but, communicates itself to those who, in heart, seek after it. For God and His Christ are now in heaven; and " this is life eternal, to know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent."
To any extraordinary knowledge about the place, I make no pretension; indeed, I not only confess myself to be still a learner about it, and to know nothing, save the little which God may have given me, to see for myself that He has revealed about it in the book, but, I have individual confession for culpable past ignorance to make. Still I have read what others have written, as students gleaning for themselves, and for God's people in the field of His written Word, and, I have, while gleaning there for myself, found some things, which have struck my own mind, and which I would desire now to present to others.
